JOURNAL OF A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

THE WEDDING ATMOSPHERE IN PROVENCE

It was summer, the village of l’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue was full of people because this village is one of the most prettiest of the region which hosts especially one of the most beautiful church. The place was filled with elegant guests with the flower girls and their basket of rose petals which by the heat bothered the air with their perfume. The curious tourists were approaching more and more around the church wondering who could marry in this beautiful church. So when the bride's car arrived many of them were trying to see our beautiful Harriet in her wedding dress on her dady's arm.

THE COUPLE

A wedding is also an opportunity for a couple to mix their two worlds. Harriet had grown up in the Luberon, for her, every street in Isle-sur-la-Sorgue told her story. It was significant to get married at this village and it was also an opportunity to discover it to her fiancé. Emmanuel works for a very good company of French gastronomy, it was obvious for him to offer exceptional flavors for their guests from the mises en bouches during the cocktail to the final dessert! On this summer day, they were writing their story together.

THE WEDDING VENUE IN PROVENCE

The guests took their places in the freshness of the church. Emmanuel was already in a position of waiting and impatience at the front of the altar. The Church of the Isle-sur-la-Sorgue was like a cocoon that isolates us from the outside stares. The music begins and resounds on the walls of the church and we see the appearance of the silhouette of our bride.

A SPECIAL SOUVENIR OF THIS WEDDING IN PROVENCE

I have a lot about this wedding but if I had to choose one, it's at the time of the dinner. When the musicians circulated between the tables to play music. Everyone was dancing, guests of all ages, even I couldn’t resist to dance to their music! It's good to see all the generation dancing!
